When She Stops Playing Nice

Chapter 453 Ethan was furious but also wary of Gabriel, not daring to be too harsh. "Gabel, givea break. You nearly strangledto death once, and you're still not satisfied? Yes, I targeted Gina before, but I've already paid the price. What more do you want from me? Do you wantto die to make you happy? Tell me.

"These are completely different matters and I'm not targeting you because of Gina," Gabriel clarified. Ethan didn't believe Gabriel's words and snorted. "Grandpa has already agreed." "Dad, even if you agree, I will intercept the fund transfer," Gabriel said.

Ned was silent for a while, but he suddenly remembered Gina mestioning that the investment nt in Ethan's project wasn't suitable. In any way, he trusted Gina's judgment.

"Well, this..." Neil wanted to say something but hesitated since he had agreed to Ethan's request earlier and it would be inappropriate to reject it now."

"Forget it, Grandpa, I don't need the funds anymore." his, he turned to walk away angrily.

After Ethan leh, Neil said, "Even if I gave him 40 million dollars and he lost it all, it wouldn't matter." Gabriel interrupted, "Dad, it's not about losing money. The all-in-one medical examination machine project has serious issues and might involve death." Neil was stunned. "What? What has Ethan done?" "We're not sure yet, but two people who had done the cheap medical checkup using the machine at Blue Vale Hospital had accidents. One died while another went missing luckily the missing one has been found," Gabriel briefly explained the situation Neil was shocked. "How could th this happen?" "We're still investigating," Gabriel replied.

Suddenly feeling a tightness in his chest, Neil clutched his heart Gabriel was worried, stepping forward to support Neil "Dad, are you okay?" "Gabriel, no matter what, you need to watch over Ethan. Don't let him go astray. His past indulgences weren't a big deal, but anything involving death is unacceptable." Neil folt dizzy, thinking that if Ethan committed such heinous acts, it would spell the end for the Jackson family.

Gabriel's expression was grave as he suspected Ethan had already gone astray.

However, he didn't want to worry Nell too much. "Okay, Dad, don't worry. I'll handle it." "Alright." Neil took a deep breath and added, “I'm a bit tired. I'll go rest for a while." Ethan returned to his parents' house.

We miss you so much, Ethan." 1/3 60% Chapter 453 She walked up, holding Ethan's hand while looking him up and down, then slapped his shoulder lightly. "Have you not been eating well? You're so thin, breaks my heart." Ethan impatiently shrugged off A b bi e 's hand. "Can you stop nagging? I rarely chome, and you're already bugging me. Maybe I shouldn't cback at all Abbie was taken aback upon hearing his words. "Why are you throwing a tantrum? Are you upset about something? Tell me, don't it out on me. I can help you." "You?" Ethan sneered and continued disdainfully, "What can you do?" A b b i was speechless. T'm your mom and you don't even respectanymore. Fine, you're capable now and if you look down on me, so be it, but can't you at least tellwhat's bothering you?" "..." Ethan hesitated Clinton entered d the living room. "You look troubled. Is there a financial problem?" It was not a problem, just that Ethan had no money at hand, which made him uneasy. He was just afraid that there would be a sudden issue with the project.

"Tell me, are there any cash flow difficulties that you need money? That's why you are coming to us for help, right?" Clinton asked.

"No," Ethan denied it since there was no such a problem.

Clinton continued, "It's your first tworking on a project, so it's normal for there to be problems. If you face any issues, just tell us and we can think of a solution together. As long as it isn't too serious, there's a way." Ethan grew impatient and clarified, “There's no problem with my project." "No problem? It doesn't seem like it. It's normal to encounter schallenges along the journey, especially when you're handling it alone." "What do you mean I need help?" Ethan exploded. Back then, Gabriel started at a young age and succeeded on his own without any help. Ethan thought that he could do the ssince Gabriel could achieve it. His project had no issues and he chhoping his parents could lend smoney as a backup.

He thought if he asked for money now, they'd think his project was failing Ethan didn't want them to doubt him and could only angrily say, "Why are you assuming things? I said there's no problem. You two have lived so long. what have you accomplished? Do you think you know a lot?" Clinton was dumbfounded by Ethan's words. "Ethan, you're so arrogant just because you have ssuccess. I just asked a question, why are you so agitated?" "Why do you have to ask? In the Jackson family, you're the most useless. If you had any capability in the Jackson Group, I wouldn't have to endure Gabriel's attitude." Ethan started bringing up old grievances since he was getting angry.

"You are so ungrateful. It's fine if you don't want to go home, but you are now coming back just to argue with me. Are you looking for a beating? Clinton was so angry that he wanted to find something to beat Ethan, simply reaching for his belt.

Ethan fired back. "Am I wrong? You're a failure, but I'm not. You don't get to question me.” "You..." Clinton was infuriated because he asked out of kindness, but it was wrong in Ethan's eyes.

Ab b i e intervened, pushing Clinton aside. "Alright, stop it. Do you want to hit Ethan? I think Ethan's right. I've been married to you for so many years, and what have you done besides living leisurely? Now that Ethan's successful, you can't help, and you still want to criticize him? You must be crazy."
